The Well is a narrative podcast about the intersection of pregnancy, postpartum, and addiction. New research suggests that perinatal (conception through the first year postpartum) addiction (and subsequent overdose), suicide, and homicide together are a leading cause of maternal mortality. The Well will focus on the stories of those with lived experience with the voices of local and national experts interwoven to tell the whole story behind perinatal addiction. This podcast will examine how trauma, poverty, stigma, and structural barriers shape people’s lives when they have an addiction. This podcast will also show that there is hope for those with perinatal addiction.
